Ding Tian's Ancient Life

If you are a scholar, you will be exempted from taxes and corvee.

If you take the Juren test, you can simply exempt from taxes and corvees on all the fields entrusted to him.

After gaining fame, you can see officials without paying homage, and ordinary officials don't even have the right to interrogate.

A scholar can even participate in some matters that need to be consulted in the county government. At the stage of Juren, he and the county magistrate are considered friends.

Once you become a squire, you don't need to be an official at all, and you can become a powerful party in the village.

This is the case with the Cai family. They have two Juren and two scholars. In the previous generation, Mr. Cai’s father was also a scholar, and his grandfather was a Juren.

So their family is a "well-known family" in the local area, but they have to bow down when they arrive in Fucheng, because Fucheng is not their territory, and they are people with fame and fame, and the magistrate can't do anything to them.

But even with such a courtesy, the Cai family felt humiliated and blushed.

But they had to go, because their family was the one who suffered.

"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll go to the hall after I change my clothes..." Master Cai still understands the reason, his arms can't twist his thighs, so he has to go when he lets go.

In today's government office lobby, everyone arrived very neatly.

In the prison, after Ding Tian went to work, he was the first one to find Jin Buhuan, and the two went to meet Yun Huaqing together: "We have done everything we can, and as for whether you can reverse the case, can you arrest the murderer?" It's up to you to bring it to justice."

"Don't worry, you two, I will definitely avenge Chun'er and the child!" Yun Huaqing returned to his previous appearance, but it was quite different from before.

After getting rid of the exaggerated and dandyism of the past, and the feeling of despair, now he is like a saint!

For love, I am willing to die and come back to life....

Ding Tian couldn't make up his mind, and he was more serious if he didn't change his money there: "After you go up, just say what you have to say, and speak according to the facts.

Don't hide anything, even if it's about getting pregnant out of wedlock. "

"This...?" Yun Huaqing was a little hesitant: "The reputation of Chun'er...she is still in the Cai family's ancestral grave..."

If the reputation is bad, it is estimated that the Cai family will definitely not let Chun'er be buried in the ancestral grave.

"You are stupid!" Jin Buhuan reminded him: "She is your fiancée, you can definitely marry her and let her be buried in your ancestral grave as your wife."

"How could I be so stupid?" Yun Huaqing smiled miserably: "I have been expelled from the village, and my family doesn't want me anymore. My name is no longer on the genealogy..."

How about talking about ancestral graves?

He couldn't be buried in the ancestral grave after he died, let alone Cai Chun'er.

"I said you're stupid, do you still think I'm wrong?" Jin Buhuan sneered: "If you wash away your grievances, then your family property, money and fame will be restored. At that time, if you don't want to live in Yunjia Village, you will give up your house and land." Sell ​​them all and start a new Yun family, study hard, raise people, Jinshi, and become an official, let those clansmen who expelled you envy and hate you, but you just can't rely on them, and you will be mad at them!"

Yun Huaqing's eyes lit up: "Is it possible?"

"Why not?" Jin Buhuan urged him: "You are a scholar, go to the entrance examination, study hard, raise people, Jinshi, even if you are not an official, you are also a Jinshi master. Here, you can be equal to the magistrate! Those people... ...I will always look up to you in the future, but you can't be soft-hearted, you have to create a Yun family yourself! Even a family..."

Ding Tian was stunned!

Is this the rhythm for a man to create a family?

Don't say it, you can!

In ancient times, as long as a man had some money, he would not take a concubine, even if it was because of his status, but the girl in the room could ignore her status, because the maid was a servant, equivalent to the existence of cattle, horses and sheep. .

You can't even escape, the fugitive slave will be beaten to death!

And the children they give birth to are either concubine sons and concubine daughters, or they can be recorded under the name of the aunt's mother and act as the sons and daughters of the concubine...

"At that time, you can completely record the concubine and concubine under Ms. Cai's name, and she will have someone to burn paper and offer incense to the grave in the future..." The more Jin Buhuan talked, the more he felt that this idea was good: "And when the time comes, you will buy it." A large piece of land, named after the cloud

Jiazhuang!Should you be an ancestor of the Yun clan, or be a shelter for those heartless people?Don't think I don't know, you have often argued with other people in the county because of Yunjia Village. Although your Yunjia Village has more faithful men and women, there are more messy things. Every time you have to come forward as a scholar, this Who are they? "

Yun Huaqing's eyes were moist.

"Okay, okay!" Ding Tian hurriedly stopped: "Yun Huaqing, think about it for yourself. Today's court hearing may be your last chance. You should take it by yourself. Okay, after changing clothes, I will take you to court."

Yun Huaqing is not the only one who needs to go to court, there are many others.

As well as physical evidence, more stolen goods.

The stolen goods this time are very complete. The county magistrate of Baiyun County fully supports Bai Zhanfeng to participate in this case. Whatever evidence he wants to give, it is said that the "stolen goods" that were recovered from Yun Huaqing's house were also given away in a large amount. coming.

When Du Zhifu sat in the hall, of course he had to tell the suffering master to come up. Because of the fame of the Cai family, they could bow and salute in the hall instead of bowing down.

So there are three masters in the suffering master's family, standing, and the ones who come are Master Cai, Juren Cai, and Xiucai Cai.

Cai Xiaoxiu was at home with his sick and bedridden mother, and the Cai family couldn't live without someone at home.

Since the sufferer has come, the defendant must also go to court!

Yun Huaqing has already lost his reputation as a scholar, so he wants to kneel down in the hall, but he does not call himself a sinner, but a grassroots!

"My lord, he has pleaded guilty and failed to obey the law, yet why doesn't he claim to be a sinner?" Cai Juren was not happy.

"Plead guilty?" Yun Huaqing laughed bitterly: "If Caomin does not plead guilty, he will be tortured to death in that dark cell! If he does not plead guilty, he will be killed. If he pleads guilty, he can stop being beaten and suffer. The family has cleared Caomin out. The family and the family have also cut off the name of the grass-roots people on the genealogy, and even the fame has been removed by the Xuezheng lord, my lord! The grass-roots people have been wronged!"

"Why are you wronged? Tell me in detail." Prefect Du didn't even look at Mr. Cai's frequent winks. What kind of place does he think this is?

Prefect Du ignored him.

Yun Huaqing figured it out this time, he really said everything!

Including the matter of having a child with Ms. Cai's family, they all revealed it. Although the Cai family yelled... But the Du Zhifu asked them to hold them down: "In the lobby of this mansion, you are not allowed to speak. !"

Master Cai's face turned pale: "The reputation of my Cai family... is all over!"

But Cai Juren was silent, with a gloomy face, and Cai Xiucai was similar.

After Yun Huaqing finished speaking, Cai Ju said, "There is no evidence for what you said, and you, the name of the county

The sound is not very good, my sister betrothed to you, it is really a flower stuck in cow dung! "

Yun Huaqing's face turned pale when he was told.

His reputation in the county is indeed not very good.

The same is true of Yun Huaqing's shortcoming, there is no witness, let alone physical evidence!

At the beginning, after he drank, he bid farewell to everyone and left. When he returned home, he rested and slept on the kang all night. Caught up.

For one night, no one really saw him. Besides, in the middle of the night, if nothing happened, who would visit him at their house?

"Then, plaintiff, Master Cai, Cai Juren, Cai Xiucai, what is your evidence?" Prefect Du asked them bluntly.

This time, the Cai family blushed.

In the end, it was Cai Juren who said: "My sister was naive since she was a child, because most of my family are scholars. Although my mother loves my sister, she is not in good health. She only read some books with her brothers and recognized some characters. However, she didn't like the Four Books of Women's Treasures and Precepts, and read some romance scripts every day, so much so that she...on the way to Shangxiang, she happened to meet Yun Huaqing, and she secretly agreed with her, and Yun Huaqing entrusted her to her. People are matchmakers..."

He was talking about another version, which was that Yun Huaqing was unrestrained. Even if he was engaged, he still insisted on seeing his fiancée, so that after getting drunk, he talked nonsense and insisted on kissing Fangze. The younger sister heard that he was married. The dowry was half of his property, and he was very moved. He asked the old lady at home to pass him a message, asking him to manage the family business well, study hard, and in the future, he will do well in high school and serve the country.

Anyway, good things to say.

General will cover up his daughter's embarrassing behavior.

But as soon as the subject changed, he bit Yun Huaqing: "Who knew this bastard! He actually climbed the embroidery building in the middle of the night and saw sister-in-law Feng

The thick dowry actually moved her mind to rob money!Not only did she kill her sister, but she also wiped out all the gold and silver! "

Cai Xiucai also said: "Because there is only such a younger sister in the family, although my Cai family asked for a generous dowry gift, all of my family will go back as a dowry, and the dowry is twice the dowry gift!"

This is also the rule of the big family nowadays. The dowry is usually twice the dowry gift to show the importance of the maiden's family to the girl.

meaning.

"He actually treated my Cai family like this, my Cai family, I want justice!"

Yun Huaqing's eyes turned red: "I told you before, I'm not a murderer! How could I be a murderer? Chun'er is pregnant with my child!

"

"Shut up!" Master Cai roared angrily, "It doesn't count that you harmed my daughter, and you want to ruin her reputation? You are not as good as a beast, but thanks to you, you are still a person who reads sage books!"

"Okay, okay, what you all said makes sense, and the Cai family has some evidence, pass it on!" Du Zhifu told both parties to shut up

The witness of the Cai family is their neighbor, a middle-aged woman.

"You are someone who has seen Yun Huaqing climb the embroidered building, third sister-in-law, tell me!" Cai Xiucai pointed at the woman and said, "Don't be afraid, this is a government office, and the person sitting on it is the magistrate!"

The woman didn't dare to raise her head, she just kowtowed: "Yes, I know, I know..."

"Tell me."

"The little lady has indeed seen Yun Huaqing go to climb the embroidery tower."

Du Zhifu frowned, it was Ding Tian who stuffed a small note and asked Master Du to hand it over to Mr. Fu Zun.

If it were someone else, Mr. Du would definitely not hand over the note at this time, but for Ding Tian... Mr. Du stepped forward helplessly, and took the opportunity to change the tea bowl for Prefect Du, and stuffed the note into it.

Du Zhifu asked her again calmly: "Do you know that the penalty for perjury is very heavy!"

The woman shivered for a moment: "I know..."

At the same time, Prefect Du quietly opened the note with the words "time" and "number of times" written on it.

"How many times have you seen Yun Xiucai climb the embroidered building?" Du Zhifu patted the gavel.

"Four times!" The woman was startled and blurted out.

Immediately, the faces of the Cai family turned pale.

"When was it all?" Prefect Du took advantage of the victory to pursue.

"The night of the full moon!" The woman was so frightened that she cried: "It's not the night of the full moon, it's a big black sky, how can you see who is the person?"

Who is it? "

What she said made sense!

The point is, the case happened on June [-]th, which was not the night of the full moon.

Although there is also the moon, there is absolutely no bright light.

"Which full moon night is it?" Du Zhifu continued to ask, his voice was not as gentle and polite as before, but a cold scolding

"The fifteenth day of the first month, the fifteenth day of the third month, the fifteenth day of the fifth month, and the fifteenth day of the June month!" The woman remembered it very clearly.

"Did you also see Yun Huaqing climbing the embroidered building on the day of the incident?" Prefect Du slapped the gavel again with a "snap".

"No!" Where did the woman experience such a battle?

She has seen the magistrate, but the prefect, that is the person who is in charge of the magistrate.

She dare not lie in front of this...
